Copa Airlines is making another push to turn connecting passengers into visitors. This week, the Central American carrier announced it's expanding its Panama Stopover program from seven to 15 days, allowing passengers to make a stop in its home country at no additional airfare cost.
By allowing passengers to spend up to two weeks exploring Panama before continuing onto their final destination, the airline aims to show travelers that this Latin American country is a destination in and of itself.
Copa and its tourism partners look to attract 250,000 visitors in 2026 alone.
